I hope I did not rain on your parade, but I have submitted pstoedit in the 
Fedora QA bugzilla. This is a great app, which can work as a plug-in to 
gsview 4.x. See: https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1440

libEMF is busted building on Fedora-1 (properly) , even with gcc patches 
poached from other distros. Needs some massaging and it is an abandoned 
project AFAICT. I would be curious to see if it can be made to work properly 
on FC-1 and FC-2.. 

I have not finished the plotutils package yet, so submitting this to QA would 
be welcome. 

Package submission guidelines and other pertinent info:

Cheers,
Peter
